Feedback!

Well when I first finished I looked at my watch and thought OMG I beat yesterdays time! but I now realise I was looking at the last split which was 36 seconds!
Todays session was intervals so I expected it to be slower. I also found out it is very windy out there!
As I 1st went out I was messing with my watch so was unable to take my splits for each sprint and was unable infact to see the time! So I did 2 lamp posts sprint, 1 walk (to enable coughing, splutter and nose blowing!) then 1 jog. According to my GPS, best pace was 7.48mm!! The last 2 sets were into a head wind so only go to 10.30mm!
As I finished my last set I jogged into the wind at a massive pace of about 16.30mm then turned the corner out of the wind and suddenly I was at 12mm pace! As I said it was windy out there!
Oh and the knee wasn't noticed at all which is good!
I also realised why I chucked on Sunday (sorry!), it seems that cos I am not a chap and used to gobbing (!) when I clear my throat of phlegm it makes me gag, if I do it enough you then chuck! I was close to this 2-3 times today! Nice conversation!

Still I'm pleased with today's effort - Grinning pixie!

well run pix



maybe I could offer lessons? I have taught runningminibeanz how to get rid of snot on the run - just hope he never gets up-wind of any of us!

I'm glad my tea was settled before reading this. Nice to hear your back running after your sinus problems. Glad you got something out of your interval session, they will make a big difference to your running.

I'm doing Bramley as well, might see you there.

Take care
Robert

The Next Three Weeks

So I have a few busy weeks ahead that may, or may not, affect what happens here. So this weekend I am running the Chester metric marathon - should do about 3:30 and get a PB by around 30 mins if things go to plan. Next week I am on holiday and have the in-laws visiting which will be nice. Then after then I have 2 weeks of jury service in Derby. I really want to get a case as I am really interested in knowing what actually happens and what it's like in court. But knowing my luck I will have 2 weeks of waiting for nothing. I have Ami's zoom calls to review and take notes on, books to read, coloring/drawing to try my hand at and Loki to watch! After that the exciting news is my part time request has gone through so from 4th December I will be part time. Very exciting. Then hopefully I can start a potential path to being a swimming teacher. Fun days ahead

What Are You??

Apparently I am a geek after spending some time chatting to a first line support person and comparing degrees!! I am also apparently an executive as I earn more than a certain sum of money! This I must point out is executive in the eyes of a Midlands person and not a southern!! I think I am a runner and a mother because I run and have a son! I don't think I have a career and would struggle to define what I really do! Talking of which I may change the address for this site to blog.html or similar because if I do go job hunting I am not sure if my made ramblings should be front page news!! hehe!! I currently work in IT doing support with a hint of customer service at second line. I run and I'm trying to learn to draw! So what or who are you!?!
